Every day, each and every one of us live through different circumstances, scenario's and emotions. It is almost impossible to always be in a great mood and to feel on top of the world.
We all have days when we feel hopeless or helpless, when life does not exactly deal us the hand we want.
I always try to share with you messages that are optimistic and uplifting, and yes, I am very fortunate that life has been very kind to me, but even I have those days, where everything is not quite the way I want it and things seem to be spinning out of control.
This is part of life, right?
Those are the days where you need to be brave, when you need to lift up your chin, pull back your shoulders, and remind yourself that like everything, this too shall pass. You need to remember that in each situation or moment like this there is always something to be gained... some lesson to learn, some message to help you grow.
Whatever confusion, pain or heartache, or maybe just pure hopelessness you are feeling in that moment or on that day will fade into the background if you can just hang in there. Tomorrow is always a new day with new possibilities, no matter how dreary things seem in the moment you are in.
In moments or on days like those, I always remind myself of a little song that I love. It is childlike and sweet but it carries a very profound message. The song is "Tomorrow" from the musical "Annie"... and of course I remember my Pizzazz Factor.
You don't always have to wait 'till tomorrow for the sun to come out... you can take action right away...
In the Pizzazz Factor I give you the physical and tangible tools that you can use to uplift your spirits and help you get back into that positive and affirmative mindset when you feel that no matter what, you can conquer the world because you have confidence in yourself and your own abilities and in your own judgment.
When life is getting you down, your posture and your body language tells the whole story... you are like an open book to others. Your mindset and your emotions have a huge effect on the way you carry your body - your posture and your facial expressions; your whole demeanor reflects exactly how you feel.
At the same time... the way you carry your body - your posture, body language and expression can affect the way you feel. So when you feel down and defeated, that is when you need to be brave, you need to do as the song says...
"Lift up your chin, and grin and say, the sun will come out tomorrow!"
The Pizzazz Factor is not only about impressing others, but it is about allowing yourself to live life to the fullest. By improving your posture, poise and body language you are giving yourself the gift of great quality of life and the ability to perform at your best whenever you need it most - Even on those days when you feel down and nothing seems to be going your way.
You have the Power to change your mind and to change your mood. I show you how with the Pizzazz Factor.
Kind regards
Vanessa Bader

Fearless Strength

Tonight on television, "America's Got Talent" there were three very inspiring stories that teach us all about different facts of powerful strength like fearless strength.
I'll tell you about them in three different emails as they are great stories and some powerful lessons are within these stories.
First, there was a little 4 year old girl that sang, "Somewhere Out There". She was a little angel that spoke with that childlike lisp we all have when we're that age and she walked fearlessly out onto a stage of thousands seemingly oblivious to the fact that there were millions behind the television cameras as well going to watch her sing.
She walked with unwavering determination out onto the stage and sang all the words without missing a single one - and on pitch! Two impressive feats for even grownups and some professionals.
There wasn't an ounce of fear in her little voice as she communicated to the judges with a casualness of a pro. She projected complete confidence and won the crowd and judges over completely getting all thumbs up and a cheering audience. She's on to Vegas now.
As children most of us are born with an innate fearlessness. Sadly, we listen to people who tell us we can't and then as adults we continue the cycle by telling ourselves we're not worthy and compare ourselves to others we have no business comparing ourselves to.
Children are sponges because they "don't know any better". It's a beautiful thing and how great would that be if we continued that into our teenage years and onto adulthood. "Not knowing any better", is a good thing to remind ourselves of and to go back to the days when we were fearless in our hearts and minds.
My own parents had me performing for huge crowds when I was 3 years old. By the time I was 5 I performed 5 instruments, sang, and tap danced on the Regis Philbin show. Yes, I was fearless when I was young and picked things up like a sponge as most children do. And I was happy that my parents brought me up to be fearless - even though I sometimes still have to kick myself in the arse for my own limiting beliefs.
Being ignorant of fear is a good thing sometimes. It's one of the great gifts of being young. But as adults we also need to remind ourselves to practice fearlessness as it can also bring great rewards along with talents and strengths you never knew existed.
If you remember that child inside, you don't care what others think - you're not afraid of bruising your ego because you're just too busy having fun having fun. (Yes, there's a reason for saying it twice) :) This in itself will help build your self-confidence almost without trying.
Sometimes you might try not adding up the poundages in the gym in your mind or the reps. Just keep stacking plates on and ignore what you did yesterday, what others can do, what other might think if you fail. Stop the stupid peanut gallery adult mind chatter.
Activate the "I can do it" tape instead of "that's 20 pounds more than my best" or "5 more reps than my previous". Remember words like the great Reg Park who said that he never thought about the weight. His mind moved the weight.
We are beings of creative energy. Get busy being creative in building yourself up instead of creatively limiting yourself with "clever" debilitating thoughts. This little girl's face lit up when the judges and crowd went wild. But it was already lit up when she walked out.
There's a lesson just in that. When your fearless, your entire body will exude joy because you're not waiting for approval and you're not limiting your own innate strengths.
Expressing fearlessness and joy in what we do gives you strength and power that will light up you and everyone around you because you're expressing the pureness of your innate raw energy without limitation.
Set your mind into creative high gear to seek possibilities in all you do - Today.
To Your Mastery and Strength, Garin Bader
P.S. If you want to learn to bring the joy back to movement, mental focus, and experience strengths way beyond where you are now, let CoreForce Energy super strength training bring you there but filling your mind with ideas that energy is what creates strength - not mental and physical force.
Think, Feel and Create your Self-Image
Written by veedance

Anything that anyone ever created started with a single thought. A single thought is the origin of everything that is.
So is your self-image. You are the creator of your own self image. You have the power to change it and shape it whichever way you like. But it has to start with thought, with a goal, with a vivid picture.
We tend to be so focused on those things about ourselves that we do not like... it is easy to look in the mirror and point out your own flaws... but if those are all you see, if your imperfections are the only things you can see in the mirror, then how can you expect others not to see them?
In stead, you should be actively creating your own positive self-image by looking for the beauty in you, and you have to be clear in your mind about what it is you want others to see when they look at you.
Sometimes those very imperfections that you see, are the beauty of you... but because you view them as imperfections, that is exactly what you allow others to see.
Do yourself a favor right now. Before you continue reading, get a pen and paper ready. If you have some of those little index cards - those work very well, if not, any paper will do.
Be a star

You know the saying - " Don't judge a book by its Cover" and " The clothes do not make the man"
Well, while that is true, dressing in the correct way can make a huge difference to the way you are perceived by other people. It can also change the way you feel and act - and that is what I am getting at.
Dress for Success
Last night was formal night here on the ship. Well, I couldn't believe my eyes. Those same passengers I see dragging their feet all day, schlepping around like they couldn't care less about their appearance, looked like complete strangers.
Each and every one of them looked like a star! And more importantly, they were acting in a totally different way. All of the men were walking around looking dapper and confident, and the ladies beautiful and graceful.
So even though the clothes do not make the man or the woman, it can surely make you act and feel different.
